Antagonistic effect of enterocin CCM 4231 from Enterococcus faecium on "bryndza", a traditional Slovak dairy product from sheep milk.

Abstract：

:"Bryndza" is a traditional Slovak dairy product (type of soft cheese) made from sheep cheese which was ripened for 14 days. Because its manufacture, transporting and/or storing represent conditions which facilitate contamination, the effect of enterocin CCM4231 in "bryndza" was investigated with the aim to reduce the contaminant agents. "Bryndza" was divided into equal portions (50 g). The experimental sample (ES) as well as the control sample one (C1) were inoculated with Listeria innocua Li1 strain. The other control samples C2 and C3 were without Li1 strain. C3 control was selected as a reference control. ES and C2 portions were treated with purified enterocin CCM4231 in a concentration of 6400 AU/ml. Before the experimental inoculation, "bryndza" was checked for the presence of contaminant agents. The experiment lasted 1 week and the samples were stored in the refrigerator at 4 degrees C. Sampling was performed on day 1, on day 4 and on day 7. The control samples C2 and C3 were checked only on day 1 and then after 1 week. The following contaminant agents were detected in "bryndza" before its experimental inoculation with L. innocua Li1 strain: Escherichia coli in the amount 10(3) cfu/ml/g, Staphylococcus aureus (10(2) cfu/ml/g) and enterococci (10(4) cfu/ml/g). In the control sample C2, the number of E. coli was reduced to 10(2) cfu/ml/g. Enterococci and staphylococci were totally eliminated there. Concerning C3 control, natural decrease of bacteria was found and/or their unchanged counts. The value of pH (5) was stable during the whole experiment. In the experimental sample inoculated with Li1 strain, its counts were decreased immediately after enterocin CCM4231 addition approximately by one order of magnitude. This inhibitory effect was also detectable on day 4 by the difference of one order of magnitude between ES and C1. On day 7, 10(3) cfu/ml/g of Li1 strain were detected in both samples (ES, C1). The difference by one order of magnitude indicated, an inhibitory effect of enterocin CCM4231 in "bryndza". However, bacteriocin activity was not determined by laboratory analyses.
